Anatomy of the BANDH...

The human body,
is like
my country.

You get out of it
what you put into it.

The intestinal ministry
at the centre,
takes in all kinds
only to
check,
modify
and distribute it
to
the heart state,
the brain state,
the limb state,
the kidney state,
the recently bifurcated
lungs state.

But
we abuse it
in our
reckless
heavy
uneconomical eating,
falsely enjoying
undeserving rich tastes,
with gravies
loaded
with unaccounted
strange
terrorizing
ingredients.

Transport suffers,
so much junk
on the roads,
plasticky fat
studded avenues
blocking
all movement
swirling around
huge
life sucking
statues....

Disgusted,
Suffering,
the tired limbs
retaliate,
declaring a Bandh.

Lungs
doomed breathlessly,
meet each other,
agree to join,
a Bandh;

Kidneys, filtering
with great effort,
essential stuff,
also plan to join.

The Brain,
sinking into violence
in the throes
of agitating
misguided neurons,
unfortunately joins.

Huge losses of sense,
probably in millions
of thoughts,
and
very soon,
tired
of pumping
good ideas and thoughts
of cooperation
daily
year after year,
minute to minute,
the heart,
quivers,
beats
a final retreat,
and declares,
the final BANDH...
